Inspired by the book, Wanderlust : A History of Walking by Rebecca Solnit I decided to explore some of Central  Parks nature trails known as the Ramble.  Today I was only able to cover a few sites  but when I go on vacation next week there will be more trails to discover!  I saw some of Shakespeare’s Garden, the Swedish Cottage Marionette Theatre (no performances), Belvedere Castle (My Favorite!!), you can climb up the stairs inside for some spectacular views, Turtle Pond, (No I did not see Turtle the first!

Wind-up up baby doll toy. “My name is Talking Tina and I Hate you.”  What are you gonna do with this new reality. You know the one with the sunny skies where Old Sol has burned through the ozone layer peeling your skin like an onion. Exposing your deadliest secrets. What? It’s not all fun and games? Coulda fooled me. Guess I’m the project that couldn’t be fixed, reigned in or repaired. Sad commentary on your skills or mine?

I’m smiling now aren’t you happy?  As the blood spurts forth like a fountain from severed arteries. I’m smiling now and we are all happy. Say Hello Greetings to Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm.  Let me drop a trail of sugarplums to the Old Crone’s cottage where we will go inside and have the ancient hag for dinner. Whilst mortar and pestle grind decayed flesh.
